I hope that everyone had a positive holiday and has come back to school refreshed and ready for some great learning. As staff we are keen to build on the excellent start made last term and help everyone to ‘Accept the Challenge’ to be the best they can be. I would like to welcome Chris O’Brien to Drysdale Primary. Chris has taken over from Tamara Rogers while Joanne Black continues her secondment as Acting Principal at Oberon South Primary School. Brooke Smith has now become Brooke Burgess following her wedding during the holidays. Congratulations to Brooke and Pete!

Our School photographs are being taken on Wednesday 2nd May 2018. Each student will have an individual photograph and a class photograph taken.

Please remember that for school photographs students need to wear our formal school uniform. This means that you cannot wear a Hawks top as this is only an option in our informal uniform.

Orders for individual and class photos can be made online up to 12th May 2018.

Family photos need to have been ordered and paid for before Tuesday 1st May 2018.

Each week we request parent volunteers from a year level to help cut up fresh fruit and distribute it to classes. If you have time to spare on a Friday morning we would love your help, regardless of what year level your child is in. Younger siblings are more than welcome to join you and play with the toys as long as they remain supervised. Please sign in at the office and make your way to the staff room from 9am.

This Friday, 20th April, we are asking for parent volunteers of Year 5 students to help cut up fruit.

Thank you to the Bendigo Bank for sponsoring our school’s fresh fruit.
